Secondly, we read papers from top journals and reimplement them, propose techniques for improvement, and publish papers. Lastly, while understanding real-world applications (such as cloud, robotics, quantum computers, security, etc.) through joint research, we redesign systems focusing on data technology and open up new research areas.
The professor is an utterly unassuming person, just like any ordinary person you would find anywhere. Because they blend so much into the background, make sure you don’t overlook them.
